Cmd Air India

Vikram Dev Dutt, an 1993-batch IAS officer of Arunachal Pradesh, Goa, Mizoram and Union Territory (AGMUT) cadre, has been appointed as the Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of Air India, an official statement from Air India informed on Friday.

The government on Wednesday appointed IAS officer Rajiv Bansal as the Secretary to the Union Ministry of Civil Aviation.

Senior bureaucrat Rajiv Bansal was on Thursday appointed as the chairman and managing director (CMD) of Air India, according to a Personnel Ministry order.

As the central government is planning to invite bids for Air India soon, its CMD said on Saturday that expecting a radical improvement in the airline bordering on a turnaround is an impractical thought "in this environment of disinvestment".

Air India has accepted the resignation of its Regional Director for East, Rohit Bhasin, who was allegedly caught shoplifting a wallet from a duty-free shop at the Sydney airport on June 22, airline officials said today.

Former Railway Board chairman Ashwani Lohani was on Wednesday appointed chairman and managing director (CMD) of Air India, according to a government order.

The CBI has arrested Assistant Director of Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) Rahul Rathore and CMD of Air One Aviation Alok Sharma for allegedly facilitating the issuance of airport access pass to journalist Upendra Rai in alleged violation of norms, officials said on Thursday.

An airhostess of Air India who has accused a senior executive of sexual harassment at work place has written a letter to the civil aviation minister Suresh Prabhu, copying Prime Minister Narendra Modi on it.

Air India plans to vacate unused hangar space at some airports and sell the scrap lying there to cut costs, CMD Rajiv Bansal has said.

Rajiv Bansal has been made Air India CMD under an 'interim arrangement', says civil aviation secretary R N Choubey.

"I have full faith in your capabilities and experience and am sure that we will work as a team and do everything to further strengthen the profitability of the company," Rajiv Bansal said in a letter to Air India employees.

Air India's outgoing CMD Ashwani Lohani on Wednesday said he will miss the association with the airline and described his tenure as one of the most satisfying periods of his life. Mr Lohani, who has been at the helm of the carrier for nearly two years, will take over as the Chairman of Railway Board today.

These suggestions were made after Air India CMD Ashwani Lohani exhorted his senior executives to become "aggressive commercially and display a major spurt in revenues".

As per the initial plans, the university would offer diploma and certificate courses, CMD Ashwani Lohani said.

National carrier Air India today said it flew the "world's longest" all-women operated and supported flight from the national capital to San Francisco.
